4. Configuració i instal·lació
Follow these general steps for installing your ID-COOLING FX240 PRO liquid CPU cooler. Refer to the detailed diagrams provided with your product for specific socket installation procedures.
4.1 Llista de comprovació prèvia a la instal·lació
- Ensure your motherboard is compatible with the cooler's mounting brackets.
- Gather necessary tools (screwdriver, cleaning cloth).
- Prepare your CPU by cleaning any old thermal paste if applicable.
4.2 Passos d'instal·lació
- Prepare the Backplate: Depending on your CPU socket (Intel or AMD), assemble the appropriate backplate and standoffs.
- Instal·leu els suports de muntatge: Attach the correct mounting brackets to the pump head.
- Aplicar pasta tèrmica: Apliqueu una petita quantitat, de la mida d'un pèsol, de pasta tèrmica al centre del difusor de calor integrat (IHS) de la CPU.
- Mount the Pump Head: Carefully place the pump head onto the CPU, aligning the screws with the standoffs. Tighten the screws in a diagonal pattern until secure.
- Muntar el radiador: Install the radiator and fans into your PC case. The fans are daisy-chained for simpler cable management.
- Connectar els cables: Connect the pump power cable to the CPU_FAN or AIO_PUMP header on your motherboard. Connect the fan cables to an available fan header or a fan controller.

6. Manteniment
Un manteniment regular ajuda a garantir la longevitat i el rendiment òptim del refrigerador líquid de CPU.
- Neteja de pols: Netegeu periòdicament la pols de les aletes del radiador i de les pales del ventilador amb aire comprimit o un raspall suau. La pols acumulada pot impedir el flux d'aire i reduir l'eficiència de la refrigeració.
- Comproveu les connexions: Ensure all cables (pump power, fan power) are securely connected to the motherboard.
- Inspeccionar tubs: Visually inspect the tubing for any signs of kinks, leaks, or damage.
- Pasta tèrmica: While not frequently required, consider reapplying thermal paste if you notice a significant increase in CPU temperatures over time, especially after disassembling the pump head.
7. Solució De Problemes
If you encounter issues with your ID-COOLING FX240 PRO, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
7.1 Soroll excessiu
- Soroll del ventilador: Check if fan blades are obstructed or if screws are loose. Ensure fans are properly seated. Adjust fan speed settings in BIOS/UEFI if noise is excessive at idle.
- Soroll de la bomba: A gurgling sound might indicate air bubbles in the loop. Orient the radiator higher than the pump head if possible, or gently tilt your PC case to help air bubbles settle in the radiator.
7.2 Poor Cooling Performance
- Pasta tèrmica: Ensure thermal paste was applied correctly and evenly. Reapply if necessary.
- Connexió de la bomba: Verify the pump is receiving power and is running. Check the pump's RPM in BIOS or monitoring software.
- Funcionament del ventilador: Confirm all fans are spinning correctly. Check fan connections and ensure they are not obstructed.
- Flux d'aire del radiador: Ensure your case has adequate airflow and that the radiator is not blocked by cables or other components. Clean any dust buildup on the radiator fins.
- Mounting Pressure: Ensure the pump head is securely mounted to the CPU with adequate and even pressure.
7.3 Els ventiladors no giren
- Connexió d'alimentació: Check if the fan cables are properly connected to the motherboard fan headers or fan controller.
- Configuració de la BIOS: Ensure fan headers are enabled in BIOS and not set to a very low RPM threshold that prevents them from spinning at low temperatures.
- Individual Fan Failure: If only one fan is not spinning, it might indicate a faulty fan. Contact support if necessary.
